Red (2010)

Red Synopsis

Frank (Bruce Willis), Joe (Morgan Freeman), Marvin (John Malkovich) and Victoria (Helen Mirren) used to be the CIA's top agents - but the secrets they know just made them the Agency's top targets. Now framed for assassination, they must use all of their collective cunning, experience and teamwork to stay one step ahead of their deadly pursuers and stay alive. To stop the operation, the team embarks on an impossible, cross-country mission to break into the top-secret CIA headquarters, where they will uncover one of the biggest conspiracies and cover-ups in government history.

Lorenzo di Bonaventura offered an update on what it’ll be all about. They plan to bring back the previous cast, which means you should expect to see Bruce Willis, Helen Mirren, and John Malkovich back and packing heat at the least. I guess they’ll likely bring back Mary Louise Parker too

If there's one thing almost as certain as death and taxes, it's this: if a movie is based on a ridiculous premise, involving people doing completely stupid things, and including absurd comedy that only a thirteen year old should

Watching Schwentke's name pop up for all of these action projects is particularly fascinating since his previous film was The Time Traveler's Wife, and before that it was the suspense thriller Flightplan

The new trailer is just as funny as the first one if not more so thanks to extra John Malkovich looniness, and it has the added bonus of more action, more sultry Helen Mirren, and a shot of Morgan Freeman

Will Ferrell has to be the first choice, right? To replace John C. Reilly in ANY movie? The two guys are pretty damn close to interchangeable at this point, considering Reilly has ignored his dramatic tendencies

Exactly how many people are they going to fit in the cast of Red, The DC Comics adaptation has been adding cast members right and left ever since Bruce Willis and Morgan Freeman signed on in the lead roles

Despite the giant cast, Red isn't a studio movie-- at least, not yet. It's currently up for offer at the American Film Market, where all kinds of movie packages are put together and offered to potential funders

Helen Mirren is a smoking hot, mature woman. I think that's a given. Add that to the fact that she's a top-notch actress in an industry that doesn't always offer the best parts to women of a certain age

Helen Mirren has a way of making everything about getting older look awesome. She won her first Oscar at 62, was later photographed looking smoking hot in a bathing suit, and seems to take on whatever role suits her

According to THR Schwentke is in negotiations to direct the thriller, a spy film about a former black-ops agent forced out of retirement by an assassin. Before going all romantic with Time Traveler's Wife

When you hear that Morgan Freeman is starring in a new movie called Red, don't get too excited. It's not, I repeat not, a sequel to The Shawshank Redemption, in which we follow Freeman's character Red as he lives his peaceful life in Mexico. Tim Robbins isn't even in this movie, people

Bruce Willis may be getting old, but he shows no sign of slowing down. He’s planning three more big action films. I guess if you’ve got biceps like his, why waste them on rom-coms? In Inventory, Willis would play a detective on the trail of a murderer
